Traction control on dissimilar motors. #712

Open geofrancis opened 4 months ago

geofrancis commented 4 months ago

I have a 2wd ebike with a pair of hub motor, a small geared hub on the front and a direct drive on the back, what i would like to do is be able to use the traction control to stop the front wheel spinning but due to the dissimilar ERPM I cant get them to work together.

It needs some kind of ERPM ratio that gives you a "virtual" ERPM that can be synchronized with the rest of the ESCs.

you can try to change the motor poles to try match the other motor

I tried that, gearing and pole count are only used for speed, it still uses ERPM for traction control and there is no way to change that.
